Delight, elegance and imagination meet serendipitous in Prairie Village. The best food anywhere. The loveliest apartment to call home. Lively communities and the Kansas City art scene but a whisk away. You, um, might be inclined to keep this place a secret. You ask for so little. To continue to enjoy the best of life and be independent, living in the Heartland, preferably Kansas City, with those with similar tastes and ambitions, and to do what’s dear to your heart. As it happens, there’s one lovely place in Prairie Village that meets all your criteria. It’s time to indulge that passion. Isn’t that what big, beautiful rooms are for? From Hoagy to Hammerstein, from a blog to a bike to a bridge to a quilt block to a Bardot fest, take those first stumbling steps, start a’running and fly. It’s no surprise that the human spirit finds inspiration in large spaces. Nights at home, your choice of fabulous restaurant-style dining, or the new bistro Grill from 5 to 8. Invite friends in for cards, clubs, salons and desserts. Noon-time, have guests to catered lunches. You set the speed. Across the street is Corinth Square, while on either side a short drive away are the Town Center and Country Club plazas. For big nights out, Helzberg Hall brings instrumentalists close enough to be rock stars, Kansas City Ballet’s rep is growing by leaps and bounds, and you can find every imaginable kind of art. And fun.
